  • Absolutely, and I'm not trying to say they don't own their infra or have the ability to cut off the Molly users. Luckily, if that were to happen, you could use the automated backups to restore back into Signal, since they're functionally the same.

    Regardless, both apps have reproducible builds. It's the infra that isn't reproducible.

  • They've been allowing Molly to continue to function for multiple years. Notably, from Molly's readme:

    Molly connects to Signal's servers, so you can chat with your Signal contacts seamlessly.

    I looked over the terms of service linked there and don't see anything specifically calling out third party clients. Is that elsewhere in another terms page somewhere or is it just not being specifically mentioned?

  • Point 2 is mostly not true, in that Molly exists and you can do reproducible builds with either implementation.

  • Yes, but Signal is actually a great thing, whereas Grok is not. It's just not for classified documents or correspondence.

  • This incel is still here, huh? None of the safe spaces we mentioned when you asked good enough for you?

  • hmm, I wonder why you can't post there.. /s

  • The only reason my partner and I got married was to make insurance and taxes easier. Otherwise, we wouldn't have done it. Only three people were at our wedding which was in our living room.

  • I'm not sure how much they dig, but Alexa recently changed to do everything via cloud, including all recordings and voice processing. It's definitely at least always listening and phoning home.

  • literal shitpost

  • This coming from the incel who constantly posts misogynist questions and comments? Definitely not serious. Want proof? Look at their post history and/or modlog. They exist to post misogynistic rage bait.

  • I use a metal filter in mine 😬 I wonder if not bringing it to a boil helps, I make mine at 195F/~90C

  • Eh, Nintendo copyright striking switch emulators right before this release makes me wonder if Switch 2 games can be emulated in the same fashion. If so, then that leaves mainly online multiplayer games that can't be played, and online switch games are not a great experience.

  • Ah, gotcha. It'll be interesting (in a bad way, most likely) to see how this will affect those business.

  • Once again, this is why I didn't generalize and said that the PNW is well aware of that fact, and red states have their heads in the sand. I'm not sure how many times I need to say that to make it clear to you that I answered the question appropriately. I specified how Americans are feeling to back my statement of them being aware or not. Do you think the PNW, in general, gets their news from right wing news sources?

  • I doubt that, to be honest. The supplies to make the items will also go up in price, and the US simply doesn't have the industrial power and cheap labor that other countries have to make them. GOP voters think that somehow it'll make all things cheaper (which actually would be a bad thing, deflation isn't a good sign for the economy), but the price of everything is about to skyrocket.

    That's not to mention that the few suppliers that are 100% US based would just crank up their prices anyway, because they can.

    Personally, and not having much experience in economics, I think prices will skyrocket, people will stop buying things, and then that will cause huge amounts of deflation, bringing the US right into a deep recession. I mean, my partner and friends have already stopped spending as much, and that was before today. It's only going to get worse.

  • It's definitely not legal, especially if your school is funded by the public. That "free internet and power" is paid by someone, and if it's the public, it's kind of a dick move.

    They can't see what's in your ssh or VPN tunnels necessarily, but they can usually see where the packets are originating from and going to. So if you're say, accessing it from home directly to the server via VPN or SSH, if you're not doing so using a full VPN service like Mull, they'll be able to see the origin IP of your SSH or VPN handshakes, and thus your home IP.

  • Surely US investors won't harvest data and/or enshittify the product!

  • Should have just fired the CEO instead, would've saved millions and the company in one go.

    Just last week, they were posting job listings for DevOps engineers. Glad the CEO's bullshit stopped me from even considering it.
